11-7-2016 Tidbits

I am sorry that I have been MIA (Missing In Action) in the blogosphere for about a week, I know that is not the usual and that isn’t the unusual either as if you have noticed lately before this week I have started to become more active as a blogger for the last few months but then in the beginning of this week immediately put me on break due to a few reasons but the main reason I immediately was dropped out of blogging radar is because of the family matter which I will share on that with you in a few minutes here. I wrote the article in the beginning of the week saying that I will be taking a break from blogging for a while which you can find that article by looking for the article before this article and I said that I would have no idea when I would be done with taking a break, that is until I feel comfortable enough to get back in doing what I am passionate in. So this is to say that I am back, at least for now but I am not sure about being more active that I have been the least few months because I am not exactly all the way ready to be back yet as…

Pike County, Ky is NOT Deaf Friendly

For the Deaf community, we are starting to see some of the places all over here in the United States who finally been educated and is aware of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing people to the point that they started renovating counties or cities themselves to make sure that they are accessible for everybody equally regardless their backgrounds. For several decades, by now almost everywhere in the United States is now accessible for the people who is wheelchair-bound and for the people who is senior citizens but never make the places to be accessible for the people who is Deaf or Hard of Hearing. Even though Deaf community have been around here for centuries, yet the officials in the counties or cities were aware of the people who is in wheelchair-bounds and senior citizens so they added a section in the Americans with Disabilities Act law that most of the buildings whether it be business, private, public or residential must build an accessible for the people who is in wheelchairs by building ramps along with making it easier for senior citizens to get access to the buildings without having to climb up the stairs. A few decades ago a lot of people looks at them as a disability, respects them and look at them almost equally although I am…

News Outlets Improperly Labeling The Deaf

There are hundreds or thousands of news outlets, including the big names of news companies, medium companies, and unknown companies, that everybody reads daily to gather information about what is happening in this country, whether in the United States or internationally. Some people don’t follow or keep up with current events or news about what is happening locally, nationally, and globally. But several people do keep up with the news, including myself, so we can be informed about what is happening in our country here in the United States or in other countries. There are a few services that allow some of us to personalize some news that we would like to get daily under our favorite sources, such as Google News, Yahoo News, Bing News, and some news apps like that news app in iOS 10 that allows you to personalize the way news you want them to come to you. My go-to for getting some information and news is Google News, which allows me only to get most of the news from the sources/news outlet that I prefer, and there is other news related that I personalized to get. For example, United States, Politics, World, Technology, Business, Social Media, Domain, Hosting, Deaf, Kentucky, and West Virginia are my related news picks. Not in a particular order; nonetheless, I…

10-22-2016 Tidbits

Hey guys! How are you all doing, I hope that everything is going well over there and as for me I am doing well over here amid a bothersome health issue but I am going to try to not let that stop me from writing another tidbits. But how about that game between Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears two nights ago on Thursday night?! Of course some of you already know that I am a huge fan of Green Bay Packers, I have been a fan of Green Bay Packers at the age four in the year of 1991 which is somewhat irony because as some of you know that Brett Favre’s number was four when he was playing for Green Bay Packers after being traded to Green Bay Packers from Atlanta Falcons in the year of 1992 which is a year after I became a fan of the Green Bay Packers. I very much remember watching Don Majkowski who were Green Bay Packer’s starter quarterback at that time that I became a fan of the team Green Bay Packers, Don Majkowski had played as Packer’s starter quarterback from the years of 1989 to the year of 1992 when he was injured in the game against Cincinnati Bengals and he was replaced by the backup quarterback namely Brett Favre…

How are all of you doing? I hope that all of you are doing well, I am doing well over here but I have been very busy lately with my other work and trying to figure what is the next step that I should take in my career. But beside that I am doing well though, I see that we are starting to feel the weather changing from hot weather to a cool weather and in matter of a month we will be heading into the cold weather. I am sure that some of you are not looking forward for the cold weather, also there are some of you are looking forward to some cold weather and that includes me. While I am more of a fall or spring kind of person, I am not talking about seasonal, just the type of the weather (temperature) and what it brings. We know that in the spring we would usually get a lot of raining and in the fall we would usually get less rains which that is one thing why I like fall because I am never a fan of rain. I am also not a fan of hot weather nor rain, I cannot stand them as I like the cool temperature which fall is what known for and the spring…

10-14-2016 Tidbits

So here are we again with tidbits, just two days ago I have written a tidbits article for 10-12-2016 and now this is for 10-14-2016. Two nights ago when I was writing that tidbits article, I started off at very late and tonight I am even more late than I was two days ago to start writing tidbits but thankfully it’s the weekend so that gives me just a little room to breath. Although that doesn’t mean that I can be as late as I want to, I am still trying to stick with my bedtime schedule and yes I do have bedtime schedules for my health reasons which I am not going to share that with any of you as it is my private life that no one have the rights to noses in. I don’t mean that in mean way, I mean that in nice as possible way, I just don’t like sharing any information that has anything to do with my life especially my health unless they are serious and I am dying but thankfully I am not dying at the moment so that counts something. It is just the way I am since I was born, I just don’t like to share any kinds of information that is going on with my life out with anybody…

Donald Trump Makes Republican Party Looks Bad.

The yesterday debate between two presidential candidates, Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton was decent. Last night were the second presidential debate for both presidential candidates, moderated by none other than Anderson Cooper and Martha Raddatz. There were several ways to watch the second presidential debate, which is a bit overwhelming but at least more ways for some of the people to watch but for live-streaming online, both Twitter and Facebook live-streams the second presidential debate last night. Twitter did better than Facebook did for a few reasons, Facebook live video didn’t offer accessibility while Twitter did and by accessibility I mean closed captions while at the same time letting the users talk about the debates. It was a huge success for Twitter, it comes no surprise because Twitter were the original company that invented in-person live-streaming video under Periscope which is owned by Twitter and Periscope is integrated with Twitter. I have talked about how Facebook have copycat Twitter’s idea of in person live-streaming which you can find the name of the title under Twitter Is For Sale, MySpace and Social Media. Nonetheless, the second presidential debate were discussed on a few topics such as Trump Tape and Clinton Emails (it’s getting old!), The Affordable Care Act, Islamophobia and Syrian Refugees, Wikileaks and Taxes, War in Syria, Leadership…
